Splan + SailPoint Integration: Unifying Digital & Physical Access
Managing digital identities with SailPoint is standard practice for modern enterprises but physical access often lags. Doors, data centers, and secure areas remain disconnected from identity governance, leaving gaps in security, compliance, and operational efficiency.
Splan PIAM and SailPoint together bridge this gap, providing a unified platform that automates physical access based on identity lifecycle events, enforces consistent policies, and offers a complete view of both digital and physical identities.
The Challenge: Disconnected Identity and Physical Security
Without integration, organizations face common issues:
Terminated employees or contractors may retain access to critical areas
Manual provisioning is slow, error-prone, and costly
Audits and compliance reporting are incomplete and cumbersome
Modern enterprises need a unified approach, where physical access aligns automatically with identity governance workflows.
How Splan + SailPoint Works
By integrating with SailPoint Identity Security Cloud, Splan extends identity governance policies into physical environments.
Core Capabilities
Role-Based Access Provisioning: Employees and contractors receive access only to areas appropriate to their role.
Automated Lifecycle Updates: Onboarding, transfers, promotions, and offboarding automatically update physical access.
Certification & Recertification Campaigns: Physical access is audited under the same governance scrutiny as IT systems.
Risk-Based Policies: Segregation of duties (SoD) enforcement and control of sensitive areas strengthen security.
Real-Time Synchronization: Continuous updates between PACS and SailPoint ensure accurate entitlements.
Automated Deactivation: Badge access is instantly revoked when profiles are terminated or modified.
This creates a single, unified identity lifecycle, aligning physical and digital access seamlessly.
Real-World Scenario: Identity Lifecycle in Action
Imagine a large enterprise data center:
1. A new engineer joins → SailPoint creates their digital identity
2. Their role is defined → Splan provisions badge access to relevant floors and labs
3. They switch teams → Splan updates physical access automatically
4. They leave the company → Splan instantly revokes all access
Outcome: No orphaned access, reduced manual work, and full auditability.
Seamless Enterprise Integration
Splan works with SailPoint and integrates across the enterprise security and identity ecosystem:
